These medals came in a plastic box that was beyond saving but appeared to be similar to those used for some US mint sets. They go from 1961, Alan Shepard to 1969 and the first Lunar Landing. It's a very long shot, but does anyone know the manufacturer?
Each medal 40 mm, 23.4 gr.

I looked around a little. Might be Kaag. Also look on spacecollection dot com.

Hope this helps!

They look like a short set of the Galaxy Mint medals. Scroll down on this page:

Thanks TIS and Bump. This is the site I was searching for, but I'd forgotten to bookmark. Mine look like the Galaxy mint output.

Kind of coincidentally, I was at my LCS today and noticed a similar set. The owner's son told me they had had it for only a few days. But I might not have noticed it but for this thread. I asked to look at it and asked about it. no mint on the case. Sone writing but didn't identify mint. Case was blue, not red. Similar space theme, six pieces.
